Yes, sale and lease back.  Its fairly common.

I would imagine they've looked st the books and cannot quite work out why we own a farm, a hall and a semi-detached house in Great Barr. Or why we're paying HSBC monthly for the privilege of owning an interest in the properties or why we haven't owned the home of football outright since the 1950s.

I understand all the parcels of land around B6 itself for development purposes.

Just because Edens has part ownership doesn't mean that he has to be a director, does it ?

Anyway, the other bloke's appointment was only filed at Co House last Wednesday

He doesn't have to hold any position at the club at all. He's a shareholder.

Correctamundo.

Ownership and control are two different things.

Companies house show an allotment of more shares.  Document not available yet so not certain if it's 4mn more for a total of 73mn or 73mn more!

Companies house now filed Wes EDEN’s as director..... ironically listed as the first appointment before older ones left or Dr T had changed and before Nassef was listed. All one big happy family now !

Wesley Robert Edens no less.

I don’t think Dr Tony can be too involved in the running of the club at the moment as he’s got the time to read Twitter #avfc and ‘like’ two of my tweets today.

Who’s Jonny Gould? New director apparently.

He's a talk radio foghorn. I saw on Twitter that he'd been voted onto the board of AVST, rather than the club's board?

Ah ok. Bit of difference there then.

Still no bottom of the shirt sponsor. How much will that be worth?

Not a lot I'd have thought.

Which is odd as in F1 sponsors are everywhere on the suits and cars, worth a fortune to a global audience.

We're on Sky 20 times a year in a significantly distributed league globally, so you'd think clubs would have lots of sponsorship.

Looks as if #AVFC owners have either invested a further £30m cash in the club via a share issue or written off £30m of debt by converting into shares. Either way further sign of sensible stable ownership.
